RDM/WAR, DRK/RDM, and RDM/NIN

funny this topic comes up, I plan on being a Red Mage/Warrior (or some type of melee attacking job)

The thing about RDM is that it doesn't really become that great until higher lvls. Most of the time you'll be used as a debuffer, back-up healer, or even full healer if needed. The problem with being a jack of all trades, is that you aren't a master of any. If you want a nuker, find a blm. Healer, go for the whm. Tank, warrior. For the first maybe 35-40 lvls, most of the time you'll just be a "there's no whm seeking so get the RDM" person.

Good point... I could see things getting very hard in the short run. I'm leaning toward being a Tank, but I would really like to be able to use Healing Magic and Destructive magic... I dunno, I think in the end a RDM has the most options even though the trip to this point may be diffucult.

But we'll see... IF I decide not to go Hume RDM my fallback would be Galka Warrior

If you really want to push for RDM, do WAR until you get your subjob. Then, at least you'll have provoke by the time you get into parties as a RDM/WAR.

At which lvl is a subjob allowed?

18. That'd las the RDM to level 36, of course.

Cool, I may just do that... it leaves me open to decide if I want to go with being a Tank or not too. Should be interesting.

I heard that the sub-job has to be 1/2 the main... does that mean that my WAR level will be moving as I progress as a starting RDM? In other words, will my WAR level always be dropped to fit 1/2 of my RDM skill?
